NEW YORK (UP)—They'll honor the little captain on Friday night and the response proves today that Harold (Peewee) Reese stacks up with such Brooklyn Dodger immortals as Zack Wheat, "Uncle Wilbert" Robinson and Dazzy Vance.
Aside from Wheat, the "Little Colonel" from Louisville has been a Dodger longer than any of Flatbush's storied baseball heroes. Yet in 15 years of wearing the Gowanus fivery, this is the first "day" they ever held for him.
But it will be tremendous.
Eight automobile dealers will play a mechanized game of Russian roulette. Each will drive his top model onto the field before Friday night's game and the ignition keys will be put in ahat. Peewee's little daughter, Barbara, will draw one of the keys. The car it fits will become the family chariot.
Tremendous Freezer Donated
Another firm donated a tremendous freezer and a hot dog king from Coney Island will fill it with 300 pounds of various types of meat.
Peewee will be 36 the following day, Saturday, so there have been offers from 92 sources to provide a birthday cake. A Brooklyn baker's union donated "the biggest birthday cake in the world."
There also will be such gifts as oversized television sets, enough for every room in the house; new golf clubs, which Peewee can use with professional skill, and hundreds of other items.
The Dodger office was happy to announce that Peewee would need a truck to carry it all away. So what happened? The phone rang at the Dodger office and a man

Newport Harbor Clinches Anaheim Class 'A' T
A scrappy Richard's five from Newport Harbor undisputed hold of first place last night by defeating Originals of Santa Ana in an overtime, 28-26, in an An American Summer Basketball league game at the AUHS gym.
The league's high-powered Paul Lorentzen shot as the gun went off. Santa Ana's theoretical game just didn't work out. The Carat's played a ball control game to keep Newport from running up their usual high score, but didn't quite control the ball long enough in the overtime period.
Allison's Market of Anaheim maintained a tie for second place with Fullerton by downing Huntington Beach Rec., 52-41. Gary Frederick scored ten points for Allison's, while Don Heard got 15 points for the Beachcombers.
Fullerton's Eastside held onto a second-place tie by downing the Celtics of Garden Grove, 38-31.
The regular season ends next Thursday, however Newport Harbor has already been established as league champions.

There also will be such gifts as oversized television sets, enough for every room in the house; new golf clubs, which Peewee can use with professional skill, and hundreds of other items.
The Dodger office was happy to announce that Peewee would need a truck to carry it all away. So what happened? The phone rang at the Dodger office and a man who runs a transcontinental trucking agency came through with one of his vans to carry it all the way to Peewee's Louisville home.
The big gifts are fine, naturally. But it is the offerings from the hearts of the little people which thrill the little man who has become a Brooklyn fixture.
Their dollars — and even nickels — have run the Peewee Reese fund up to better than $2,000.
"A Humble Maid"
There was a dollar from an 82-year old lady in Shamokin, Pa.
Another $1 came from a woman who signed herself "only a humble Negro maid who appreciates that Peewee has done for our people."
A Giant fan in the Bronx, unheard of, kicked in a buck.
A kid in Jim Thorpe, Pa., forwarded 25 cents "because Peewee shook hands with me two years ago."
And there have been no less than a dozen letters from youngsters with a nickel enclosed, from Mississippi, Florida, Texas and even California.
Those, to Peewee, will be the truly big things of his "night," more to be cherished, even, than the letter of greetings from Vice President Richard Nixon.
It was a long time coming to the little man. But, while the phrase may be trite and somewhat corny, it couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

Albacore Moving Up Coast
By WALLY TAFT
With heavy concentrations of albacore continuing to move up the coast from the south and new schools of bluefins acting frisky off Catalina, Southland anglers this week were busy counting the hours — maybe minutes — until the lid busts loose on the deep sea front.
Weekend fishermen — and there are plenty of 'em — had to go on out past the east end of San Clemente Island to contact the longfin.
A late report from San Diego stated that the albacore had moved north to the extent that the border city fleet were tangling with Newport and Long Beach boats in pursuit of albacore on Sunday.
Meanwhile, big schools of tuna were active around Catalina Island and one Long Beach boat landing accounted for 24 catches in four days. It was stated that only one fish in 10 hookups were landed.
Dab Bunting and Bob Cruzen of Anaheim fished out of San Clemente Pier on the "San Mateo" Sunday and caught their limits of barracuda and white bass. The white sea bass were of the small variety weighing between four and five pounds.

BULLETIN SPORTS E
It started just the other day with the announcement of Rogers Hornsby and Beverly Hills businessman Oscar were attempting to purchase the San Francisco Seals. Next, Paul Fagan, owner of the Seals' ballpark knowing any of this—even to saying he did not think would be apt to risk funds on the thought that they could money with the Seals as things stood for the moment.
Thirdly, Fagan said he would not consider a year lease on the present ball park which scatched the Salenger deal.
Salenger wired Hornsby yesterday to "stay in where you are!"
Now Tom Gray, spokesman in San Francisco's big league baseball team, claims Frisco baseball fans have a major league nine of their own by 1958.
That date makes the most sense. San Francisco seem to be the most-logical city to get major league first because of one reason: The residents of the city a five-million-dollar bond issue for a new stadium approved by the voters last fall. The Los Angeles voters thumbs down on the issue.
This 1958 date coincides with the year the Seals ends with Fagan.
MAJOR OWNERS 'IMPRESSED' WITH VOICE
Fagan's refusal to talk with the Hornsby-Salenger keeps the door open for just such a move by the majors.
Gray returned from the all-star game at Milwaukee this week where he was said to have conferred with American and National league officials.
"Both owners and managers were impressed by approval of a new stadium," said Gray. "I was also the shuffling of major league franchises is far from Chit Chat ... Bill Werle, veteran Portland soaring the Pacific Coast League with a winning pitch of .733. The most actual victories were chalked up wood's Bob Garber with 14 triumphs." Allen Gettel, the Oakland right hander, has been winning fans recently in cowboy westerns. However, he has lost games in the PCL with a -12. It must mean "Two learned to fire a pistol faster than he can throw it at least ... Jack Fleck, winner of the National hopes of winning the PGA title to become the first turn the trick since Ben Hogan did same in 1948."
is a gruelling seven-day test. "I've always been a sistent—never really hot and never too cold," Fleck steady golfer can go a long way in a match play to unless, of course, he runs into someone who hits a hat... Who's ever cold in the PGA, hey?

After being held to only one run in four innings, the Anaheim Juniors took advantage of the opposing pitcher's wildness to score six runs, and gain a 10-5 victory over Santa Ana in a game played at La Palma Park yesterday.
Five bases-on-balls, a hit batsman, and a two run single by Bob Burns did the trick in the big fifth frame. Anaheim got only three hits all afternoon.

The Anaheim Park and Rec. Dept. 'AA' league held its summer qualifying track meet yesterday as some very good marks were set by the 12-year-old boys. It was estimated that over 70 boys participated in the eight events.

The 50- and 100-yard dashes, the broad jump, the high jump and shot put events each have eight boys who will clash the evening of the finals for the first four places.
This track meet is part of the summer program. The points won at this meet will be added to the team's summer participation total points. The teams with the most points at the end of the summer will be winners of the team awards offered by the Park and Rec. Dept.
At the same time, Paul Radiator Repair took an early lead in the "B" League National Track Meet held on the high school field yesterday. Paul's has 90 points followed by Nellesen's 76 Service and 20-30 Club with 84, McCoy Drugs 79, Botts Nursery and Dorothy-Wade Restaurant with 74, Anaheim Car Wash 66, Heyings Rexall Drugs 65, Swanbergers 31, and Hartfield Jewelers 30.

Coleman Returns--But Out Again
CHICAGO — Hard-luck Jerry Coleman, in action just one game after a layoff of nearly three months, appeared to be on the shelf again today.
The peppery New York Yankee infielder was beaned by Harry Byrd of the Chicago White Sox Tuesday night in the seventh inning of a crucial game between the two front-running American League teams.
Rushed to a hospital, doctors said Coleman had suffered a concussion and possibly a skull fracture which might sideline him for another several months.
Lynx' Bielefeld Hurls No-Hitter

BUENA PARK—The Buena Park Lynx scored a 1-0 victory over the Phoenix Ramblers here last night behind the no-hit, no-run pitching of Eloise Bielefeld.
It was an all-Anaheim victory in a sense as Eloise and Catcher Mary Whitney, who singled home the winning run in the eighth, are both residents.
Ramblers Pitcher Anita Byrd limited the Lynx to just three hits in the magnificent pitchers, duel.
In the eighth inning, Carol Spanks singled. Hoppy Viera sacrificed her to second. Catcher Whitney then lambasted a pitch to left center. It was scored a single as the run scored, but otherwise would have been for extra bases.
The-only runner to reach for the Ramblers did so on the Lynx, only error of the game.
Manager Shorty Hill feels that the Lynx will be at top strength for the coming tournament as first baseman Doris Ray; who broke her ankle earlier this season was working out before the game.
There were no walks by either pitcher.
The Phoenix club and the Lynx clash again tonight in a scheduled league doubleheader starting at 8 p.m. at Amerige Park in Fullerton.

Bilko's Hit Rampage
Big Help to Angels
LOS ANGELES (UP)—Big Steve Bilko's hitting rampage has helped move the Los Angeles Angels to within two games of the fourth-place Portland Beavers in Pacific Coast League standings.
The Angels beat the Beavers, 4-0, at Wrigley Field Tuesday night as Bilko hit his 27th homer of the season, tops in the league, and Jim Brosnan and Don Elston combined to hurl a five-hit shutout. Bilko homered in the third inning with Hal Rice on base.
It was the eighth win for Los Angeles in its last 10 games. During the win spree, Bilko has hit at a .409 clip. He has slammed five home runs in the last five games.
Brosnan, who got credit for his ninth victory, hurled seven innings and gave up all Beaver hits. Elston pitched two scoreless relief innings.
Meanwhile, in Sacramento, the Hollywood Stars were shut out by the Solons, 1-0.
Tonight the Angels will use Lefty Joe Hatten (7-4) against Portland's Bill Werle (11-4).
